TRAILBLAZER RESOURCES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 
Note 1.  Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
 
Trailblazer Resources, Inc., formerly Energy Composites Corporation (the “Company”), is a public company shell that is seeking a business opportunity. We currently have no ongoing operations.
 
 The Company formerly engaged in the manufacture, sale, installation and service of fiberglass tank and piping products through ECC Corrosion, Inc. (“ECC-C”), formerly known as Advanced Fiberglass Technologies, Inc. (“AFT”), a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  On September 2, 2011 the Board of Directors of the Company, acting on the recommendation of its disinterested directors, approved the sale of all of the stock of ECC-C to Jamie and Jennifer Mancl and their affiliated entities who were the majority shareholders of the Company at the time (the “Mancls”) in exchange for substantially all of the Mancls’ shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated August 12, 2011 (the “ECC-C Sale”).  On October 21, 2011, the Company completed the ECC-C Sale.  The results of operations of ECC-C for all periods presented are classified as discontinued operations.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Trailblazer Resources, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements.
 
All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

There were no new accounting standards issued or effective during the three months ended March 31, 2013 that had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Note 2.  Going Concern Uncertainty
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,015,604, an accumulated deficit of $23,382,139 and a net loss of $138,027 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
 
The Company has limited financial resources, has been unprofitable since its inception and currently has no source of revenue generating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to rely on advances from certain shareholders to fund its ongoing obligations, however, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain an adequate amount of funding. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary funding, the Company may have to cease operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Note 3.  Convertible Notes Payable

In August 2008, the Company began a private placement offering of Units, each Unit consisting of (i) a 3-year, 6% convertible debenture with a conversion price of $2.50 (the “Conversion Price”) per share (subject to adjustment for stock splits and stock dividends) (the “Debentures”), and (ii) a number of warrants equal to the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the principal amount of the Convertible Debenture (the “Warrants”). This placement offering was in anticipation of the AFT reverse acquisition taking place, which became effective on October 14, 2008.

TRAILBLAZER RESOURCES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
 
At issuance, each Warrant was originally immediately exercisable into shares of common stock for a term of 3 years at $5.00 per share.  The Warrants also provide anti-dilution protection for the following events: reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale; subdivision, combination or other dividend of the Company’s common stock.

The private placement was closed on December 14, 2008.  Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $6,370,000 were sold which included the issuance of 2,548,000 Warrants.  The Debentures are considered to be conventional convertible debt.

 All outstanding convertible debentures at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, totaling $625,000 are past due and are currently due on demand. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 there were no conversions of convertible debt to shares of the Company’s common stock.

The following table summarizes the convertible debenture balance as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:
 
 Balance at January 1, 2011
  $ 969,870  
         
 Plus: accretion of original issue discount from warrants and beneficial conversion feature

Note 4.  Advances From Shareholders

Subsequent to the divestiture of the Company’s operating entity (ECC-C) on October 21, 2011, the Company’s operating expenses have been funded primarily by advances from certain shareholders.  Going forward, the Company will continue to incur ongoing professional fees in connection with being a public company. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $253,466 and $253,466, respectively, of the Company’s expenses have been paid on behalf of the Company by advances from certain shareholders. $125,000 of the March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 balances bears a 3.5% interest rate, and is due upon demand.  $68,466 and $128,466, respectively, of the balances at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, are non-interest bearing and due upon demand. In February 2013, $60,000 of the non-interest bearing shareholder advances were refinanced into a revolving convertible note from Diversified Equities Partners, LLC ("DEP").

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

 
Note 5.  Revolving Convertible Note, Shareholder
 
    On February 21, 2013 the Company established a revolving convertible note in the amount of $250,000 with Diversified Equities Partners, LLC (“DEP”), a shareholder and entity owned by a minority shareholder of the Company.  Under the terms of the note, DEP has agreed to make advances to the Company during the three-year term of the agreement.  Interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance at a rate of eight percent per annum and is payable quarterly beginning May 31, 2013.  All outstanding and unpaid principal and accrued interest shall become due and payable at maturity, February 21, 2016.  The Company may prepay the note at any time without penalty and re-borrow under the agreement.  DEP has the right to convert all or a portion of the note into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at the rate of $0.067 per share, but the number of shares that may be issued pursuant to this conversion privilege cannot exceed in aggregate 3,731,343.
 
    As of March 31, 2013, the Company has drawn an aggregate $159,973 on the note which includes:  (1) $60,000 of advances from shareholders outstanding at December 31, 2012 that were refinanced into this note; (2) professional services aggregating $20,000 paid directly on behalf of the Company and (3) advances made, on behalf of the Company, to a previous acquisition target, Temple Mountain Energy, Inc. (“TME”) aggregating $79,973.  These advances aggregating $79,973 were allowed for in its entirety with a corresponding bad debt expense recorded on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2013.
 
    The fair value of the beneficial conversion feature, aggregating $159,973 to date, was recorded as a discount to the outstanding amount of the revolving convertible promissory note and is being amortized over the three-year term of the note agreement.  During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company amortized approximately $4,232 of the beneficial conversion feature to interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.  The unamortized balance of $155,741 at March 31, 2013 will be fully amortized through the maturity date, February 21, 2016.

As of March 31, 2013 the revolving convertible note, shareholder was as follows:
 
 Balance at January 1, 2013
  $ -

Note 7.  Related Party Transactions

In February 2012, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with AES, an entity owned by minority shareholders of the Company, in exchange for strategic and financial advisory consulting services and issued 5,000,000 restricted shares of common stock valued at $1,750,000 using the closing market price of $0.35 on the date the agreement was executed. The $1,750,000 was amortized over the six month term of the agreement on a straight line basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, $0 and $379,000, respectively, was recorded as general and administrative expense under this agreement.
 
On February 21, 2013, the Company established a revolving convertible line of credit arrangement in the amount of $250,000 with DEP as discussed in Note 5, Revolving Convertible Note, Shareholder.

Note 8.  Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes earnings per share using two different methods, basic and diluted, and presents per share data for all periods in which statements of operations are presented. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in calculating basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
The following common stock equivalents have been excluded from the diluted per share calculations since they are anti-dilutive:

(1)  
At March 31, 2013 and 2012, there were outstanding convertible debentures equivalent to 250,000 and 260,000 common shares, respectively. The convertible shares are anti-dilutive for both periods and therefore have been excluded from diluted earnings per share.
 
(2)  
At March 31, 2013 and 2012, there were outstanding warrant equivalents of 2,311,671 common shares. The warrants are anti-dilutive for both periods and therefore, have been excluded from diluted earnings per share.
 
(3)  
At March 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no outstanding options which would be anti-dilutive.

(4)  
At March 31, 2013 and 2012, there were outstanding revolving convertible note equivalents of 2,387,657 and 0 of common shares respectively. The convertible shares are anti-dilutive for both periods and therefore have been excluded from diluted earnings per share.
 
Note 9.  Acquisition Agreement

On July 20, 2012, Temple Mountain Energy, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“TME”), executed an agreement with Trailblazer Resources, Inc. (“Trailblazer”), with regard to Trailblazer’s proposed acquisition of TME’s assets.  TME is a privately-held company with mineral leases, large mining permits and operational assets focused on oil sands mining and processing in the Vernal, Utah area.  Trailblazer would not have  acquired any of TME’s liabilities as a part of the asset purchase.

Under the terms of the proposed acquisition, Trailblazer was to issue 26,500,000 shares of its common stock to TME for the purchased assets.

The agreement was contingent upon approval by TME’s shareholders and subject to due diligence by both parties. Subject to completion of due diligence by both parties and the successful completion of the regulatory process, the agreement as amended had bound the Company and TME to a April 30, 2013 closing date.  On April 12, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors voted not to proceed with the proposed transaction with TME.

Accounting Policies and Estimates

The methods, estimates and judgments that we use in applying our critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our financial statements.  Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain.  

We have identified the accounting policies that we consider critical in Note 1 “Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies” of the notes to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The accounting policies and estimates described in that report are contained in Note 1 “Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies,” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes a discussion of the policies identified in this report and other significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this report.

Overview
 
Trailblazer Resources, Inc., formerly Energy Composites Corporation (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, currently has no business operations.

The Company had one operating subsidiary, ECC Corrosion, Inc. (“ECC-C”), which was sold on October 21, 2011 due to the continuing losses that the Company had incurred since the reverse acquisition in October 2008.  Formerly known as Advanced Fiberglass Technologies (“AFT”), ECC-C was incorporated in the state of Wisconsin on January 1, 2005, following nearly ten years operating as M&W Fiberglass, LLC (“M&W”). Founded in 1995 by Jamie and Jennifer Mancl, M&W was the operating entity that developed and operated AFT’s business. In January 2005, M&W transferred all operating assets and liabilities into a newly formed S-Corporation: AFT.  On September 1, 2010, AFT changed its name to ECC Corrosion, Inc.

On October 21, 2011, the Company sold all of the stock of ECC-C to Jamie and Jennifer Mancl and their affiliated entities (the “Mancls”) in exchange for substantially all of the Mancls’ shares of the Company’s common stock (the “ECC-C Sale”).  These shares were then cancelled, reducing the number of shares issued and outstanding of the Company to 22,720,228 on that date.  In addition, we changed the name of the Company to “Trailblazer Resources, Inc.” effective October 17, 2011. The Company is currently seeking a private company as a possible acquisition or reverse acquisition target.

Results of Operations

The three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to March 31, 2012.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

We do not currently generate any revenues, but incur general and administrative expenses related to our status as a publicly-held company, such as legal and accounting fees along with transfer agent fees and other consulting costs.

Total general and administrative expenses were $112,556 and $417,965 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expense on prepaid consulting agreements was $0 and $379,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. Bad debt expense related to the advances made to TME during 2013 was $79,928 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Legal, accounting and other professional fees were $32,583 and $41,234 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. While the Company is operating as a public shell, no director fees will be paid or accrued.

Investor Relations Expense
 
    Investor relations expense was $11,310 and $0 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Investor relations expense represents a non-cash charge to earnings for the change in fair value of warrants arising from the modification of the term of warrants previously issued, as discussed in Note 6 - Stockholders' Equity to the consolidated financial statements.

Interest Expense
 
Total interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $14,161 and $10,023, respectively. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 includes $4,232 of amortization of discounts arising from the beneficial conversion feature associated with the revolving convertible note discussed in Note 5. Interest expense in convertible notes payable has decreased due to $25,000 of debt conversions that have taken place during this past year, along with deferred debt financing costs becoming fully amortized prior to 2013. Interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2013 included $1,052 of interest payable on a revolving convertible note to Diversified Equities Partners, LLC, a shareholder and entity owned by a minority shareholder.
 
Income tax benefit

The Company has established a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets because the Company believes it is more likely than not, that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized, and therefore, there is no tax provision recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Net loss

The Company’s net losses were $138,027 and $427,988 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due to the factors described above.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2013, the Company had cash of $4,384 and a working capital deficiency of $1,015,604.

Operating Cash Flows

Operating cash flows used $617 and $0 during the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All operating cash was used to pay various accounts payable. Additionally, operating expenses of $20,000 and advances to TME, an acquisition target, aggregating $79,973 which was fully allowed for as uncollectible, were paid directly by DEP.

Investing Cash Flows

There were no investing transactions during the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Financing Cash Flows

There were no financing transactions during the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Debenture Financing

From August 2008 to December 2008, we raised $6,370,000 by selling units, each unit consisting of (i) a 3-year, 6% convertible debenture (the “Debentures”) with a conversion price of $2.50 per share (subject to adjustment for stock splits and stock dividends), and (ii) a number of warrants equal to the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the principal amount of the Debenture (the “Warrants”). The Debentures sold included the issuance of 2,548,000 Warrants. Each Warrant was originally exercisable into shares of common stock for a term of 3 years at $5.00 per share. The Warrant also provides anti-dilution protection for the following events: reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale; subdivision, combination or dividend of our common stock.

At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, debentures totaling $625,000 and $650,000, respectively, remain outstanding on the shell company's balance sheets and are currently due.  Many of the remaining Debenture holders have elected to receive interest in the form of stock, lowering our cash outlays for debt service on the Debentures. Since the Company does not have the capital resources at this time to repay these Debentures, we are working with the Debenture holders in an attempt to convert them to common stock, extend or otherwise renegotiate their terms.

Going Forward

The illiquidity and continuing losses suffered by ECC-C led to its sale to the Mancls in exchange for their shares in the Company.  This allows the Company to potentially acquire another business operation, which hopefully will have a greater potential for profitability.  We will still need to convert, extend or otherwise renegotiate the terms of the Debentures described above.  We are relying upon the limited funds provided from shareholders to continue to operate as a public company in good standing while we look for a target business. We anticipate that any acquisition with a target company will be consummated primarily through the issuance of the Company's shares of stock, as we do not have sufficient cash.

While we intend to utilize the proceeds of the loan from DEP to fund our ongoing general and administrative expenses, we will likely need to seek additional funding for operations. Our current plan is to identify and evaluate industries and business opportunities in order to identify a suitable acquisition target. We cannot give any assurance that we will be successful in this effort or that if a suitable acquisition target is obtained, it will result in profitable operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2013, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4.      Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Changes in Internal Controls

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Interim Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance the objectives of the control system are met.

As of March 31, 2013, our management, with the participation of our President and Interim Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the President and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure because of the material weakness relating to internal controls that are described in Item 9A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed April 15, 2013.  

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses that existed as of March 31, 2013, our President and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
